How come I cannot see some pictures in some threads? If I am on my phone logged into the forum I think I can see all the pictures that other people upload, but I notice when I am logged in on a computer I can't see some of those same photos.

It's practically impossible to say what the problem is without some details. Do you have any links to posts that work on your phone, but not on your computer? Have you tried a different browser to see if it is related to the browser? Do you have any software (virus checker, popup blocker, etc.) that may be affecting images?

If you see a link, are you browsing over https? If you are, and the image link is NOT https, note that the vbulletin code at TFL has been modified to show a link to the image rather than embedding it under those conditions. This is because embedding non-https images on https pages will at best generate warnings (like a different icon where the url bar's ssl icon normally is), and at worst will silently refuse to load those insecure resources (images/css/js).

In chrome, ctrl+shift+i and the console tab shows some types of content loading errors.
